I am buying property to use as rental investment. I am going to put these properties under a company. Do I need a DBA, or would it be better to put it under a single member LLC?
An LLC can help you avoid personal liability for debts or wrongs committed during business transactions.
For example, you become an LLC instead of a sole proprietor -- you become a sole proprietor by filing a DBA
and getting a business license -- someone slips and falls in your store, which is under the LLC, the plaintiff
can only sue the LLC not you personally.
So suppose you have $50 dollars in the LLC account and no other assets,
the plaintiff can only get that $50, instead of going after your house or automobile or personal accounts.
Bottom line, you avoid paying for the liability from your personal assets.
This is because the LLC is a separate entity and it can sue or be sued for its actions.
The LLC is a corporate entity that affords a lot of protections for you.

What is a DBA?
DBA stands for Doing Business As. It is an abbreviation for a business name or trade name.
So, if my business name is "The 3 Maskateers," this name would be my doing business as name, namely the DBA.
Hence, the saying, if you have a trade name, you will need to register it with a DBA certificate.
What is a DBA form?
A DBA form contains information about a trade name of a business at a certain address.
For example, if your business name is Beauty and the Bistro for your bistro business,
that name must be registered on a DBA certificate that is called
a DBA certificate or a fictitious business name certificate.
Why Do I Need to File a DBA?
This is because a trade name
is something not real, and thus fictitious that you thought out of your own mind. So, since it is a name
that you trade under, you must registered to make it official and the public can search and find out who
that trade name belongs to and who filed the form under what address.
Should I Start My Business Now?
Start your business today. Whatever you can conceive, you can achieve. Whatever the mind of man can conceive
and believe, it can achieve. Thoughts are things! And powerful things at that, when mixed with definiteness of
purpose, and burning desire, can be translated into riches – Napoleon Hill
DBA
DBA stands for “doing business as”. This means that, for example, if you are a small business owner and you name your business “Ultra A1 Clothing Fashions,” that name is a “doing business as,” name. The DBA is a fictitious business name also called an assumed business name or fictitious firm name. When you hear, you need a DBA filing; it means that you need to register your business name with a fictitious business name certificate. That filing may require legal newspaper publication, as well as filing proof of that publication. On this site, as of 8/22/12, the price to file a DBA starts at $119 and it includes all of the above: namely, the filing, the publication, the proof, and notarization, if required.

Rental property
Rental or Leasing of Tangible Equipment Any rental business that rents or leases touchable equipment needs to get a sellers permit license.
This is because like sales of equipment, renting them or leasing them requires collecting of sales tax.
Leasing houses or real estate, on the other hand, does not require a sellers permit but it does require other licensing such as business license etc.

A(n) rental property business using a DBA Doing Business As Trade Name in
Jackson County
, i.e., starting businesses using a company name other than the legal (given name) owner's name, need a(n) DBA Doing Business As Trade Name Registration.

Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID.

business tax ID number. However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting
a federal tax ID number.

If you do form an rental property llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your rental property business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba),
it will help you avoid legal and financial personal liability arising out of business transactions and you will not have to register the Ganado business name.

A: If you want more business credibility in the business market, you may want to form an LLC instead of a DBA. For example, if your trade name is.
deSteverenfrotch , Inc.Co.
requires a fictitious business name registration, which also requires a fee to be registered.

Registering a fictitious business name does not protect that name nor does it protect the business owner from personal liability related to business actions as setting up a limited liability company (LLC) does.
Our recommendation that since you need to pay a fee to register the business name, simply form a limited liability company (LLC) for a similar fee and get both corporate status and protection for the name as well as personal liabilities.

So, for instance, if someone slips and falls in your business premises, they can sue you personally if you are not a limited liability company (LLC).

Also, consider the prestige that a limited liability company (LLC) affords. Is a name like John's Transmissiona shop better than AEMCOO TRANS, LLC?

Q: I am just one person. Do I Need an LLC?A: Even if you are just one person owner, you can form an LLC (Limited Liabiliity Company).

Q: Do I need an EIN for my LLC? A: Yes, you will need an EIN for your LLC to do your LLC taxes and open an LLC bank account.

Q: Do I need to file a DBA if I form an LLC? A: If you form an LLC and you do business as the LLC name, you don't need a DBA. For example, your LLC name is "Ultra Super LLC," and your business name is "Ultra Super LLC," you don't need to file a DBA.

Q: If I set up an LLC, will the LLC help me protect my business LLC from creditors? A: Yes, actually, only an LLC can help you protect the LLC from its creditors especially if you have another partner member owner in that LLC.

Q: Do I need to obtain a federal or state tax ID number before forming a limited liability company (LLC) or getting other licenses?A:

Q: How do I build credit under my LLC business? A: Start by applying for a line of credit for your LLC from your bank if you already have some personal credit.

Hello! I am a property owner/landlord/manager in Minneapolis, MN. I was one of the roommates (?tenants?) in one of my properties, and moved out at the end of April for a variety of reasons-with another tenant lined up to rent my room so that no costs or conditions of the lease I had with the other 2 tenants changed. One of the tenants, who moved in at the same time I did (beginning of February 2014), has a 6 month lease which rolls over into month-to-month after the lease is finished (End of July 2014). Because he was a friend, I originally was lenient with his payment of damage deposit and rent. Rent was agreed to be due the 15th of every month. I did not receive full payment (though small partial) for even the damage deposit and first month's rent until approximately March 23rd. I charged (minimal) late fees at that point, and began tacking on late fees as soon as the rent was late again in April. Today (May 5th), the tenant still has not paid me April's rent. I understand it is probably a roommate issue (as the bills were in my name), but he has yet to pay in full for utility bills for March or any that were due the 1st and soon 7th of May for April as well. He has given me $50 toward all of that, which does not even cover mounting late fees. What are my rights for eviction proceedings (or do I need to give him the opportunity to pay after notice of potential eviction), how do I proceed, and what possible types of judicial or authorities do I need to involve? He also is (DEFINITELY) not physically threatening or abusive, but is verbally (as we were friends when he moved in). Thank you for any help you can provide!
